WPC stands for Wood Plastic Composite, a cutting-edge material that combines the natural beauty of wood with the durability of plastic.
WPC flooring is primarily composed of wood fiber or flour, and plastic (such as polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride). These materials are combined and then extruded or molded under high pressure and temperature to form the flooring.
The structure of Waterproof WPC Flooring is relatively simple, but each layer plays a crucial role. Generally, WPC flooring consists of the following layers:
Wear Layer: Located on the surface of the floor, providing excellent wear resistance, scratch resistance, and stain resistance.
Decorative Layer: Located beneath the wear layer, printed with various wood grain, stone grain, and other patterns, giving the floor a beautiful appearance.
Base Material Layer: This is the core part of the WPC floor. It has good strength, stability, and waterproof performance.
Advantages
Outdoor WPC Flooring offers several advantages over traditional wood decking:
Superior Weather Resistance: Highly resistant to rot, warping, and can withstand harsh weather conditions like rain, sun, and wind, making it ideal for outdoor environments.
Waterproof and Moisture Resistant: Excellent waterproof and moisture-resistant properties. It won't absorb water and expand, ensuring stability even in damp conditions.
Durability and Scratch Resistance: High surface hardness, resistant to scratches, and offers a longer lifespan.
Easy to Clean and Maintain: Requires minimal maintenance, often just a simple water rinse.
Environmentally Friendly: Primarily made from recycled wood fibers and plastic, it can be recycled and is environmentally friendly.
Diverse Appearance: Can mimic various wood grains and colors, offering a wide range of aesthetic options.
Easy Installation: Offers various installation methods and is generally easier to install.
Longer Lifespan: Can last for decades with minimal maintenance, reducing replacement costs.
